x86/ftrace: Add -mfentry support to x86_32 with DYNAMIC_FTRACE set
x86_64 has had fentry support for some time. I did not add support to x86_32 as I was unsure if it will be used much in the future. It is still very much used, and there's issues with function graph tracing with gcc playing around with the mcount frames, causing function graph to panic. The fentry code does not have this issue, and is able to cope as there is no frame to mess up. Note, this only adds support for fentry when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is set. There's really no reason to not have that set, because the performance of the machine drops significantly when it's not enabled. Keep !DYNAMIC_FTRACE around to test it off, as there's still some archs that have FTRACE but not DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
